Gelatinase is a proteolytic enzyme that hydrolyzes gelatin. Gelatinolytic activity was detected from culture broths of Streptomyces griseus IFO13350 and HH1 by paper disc assays on 0.5% agar plates containing 1% gelatin. The concentrated extracellular protein from the S. griseus was analyzed by SDS polyacrylamide gel, and two proteins, with molecular weights of 30 and 28 kDa, respectively, were identified to have gelatinase activity by gelatin zymography. The protein with a molecular weight of 28 kDa was confirmed to be S. griseus trypsin (SGT). The effects of metal ions and metal chelators on the protease activity of the SGT were studied. Of the metal ions tested, only manganese was found to enhance the protease activity, 2.6 times, however, $Co^{2+},\;Cu^{2+},\;and\;Zn^{2+}$, and metal chelators, such as EDTA and EGTA, inhibited the SGT activity. When the protease activity of the SGT was measured at various pHs, in the presence of 5 mM $MnCl_2$, its highest activity was at pH 11.0, whereas only 60% of the maximum activity was observed between pHs 4.0 and pH 6.0, and almost 80% activity between pHs 7.0 to pH 10.0. The protease activity was measured at various temperatures in the presence of 5 mM $MnCl_2$. The SGT was found to be stable up to $60^{\circ}C$ for 30 min, while only 16% of the enzyme activity remained at $60^{\circ}C$, and at $80^{\circ}C$ almost all the activity was lost. The optimal temperature for the protease activity was $50^{\circ}C$.

A bacterial isolate derived from soil samples near a cattle farm was found to display extracellular phytase activity. Based on 16S rRNA sequence analysis, the strain was named Bacillus sp. T4. The optimum temperature for the phytase activity toward magnesium phytate (Mg-$InsP_6$) was $40^{\circ}C$ without 5 mM $Ca^{2+}$ and $50^{\circ}C$ with 5 mM $Ca^{2+}$. T4 phytase had a characteristic bi-hump two pH optima of 6.0 to 6.5 and 7.4 for Mg-$InsP_6$. The enzyme showed higher specificity for Mg-$InsP_6$ than sodium phytate (Na-$InsP_6$). Its activity was fairly inhibited by EDTA, $Cu^{2+}$, $Mn^{2+}$, $Co^{2+}$, $Ba^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$. T4 phytase may have great potential for use as an eco-friendly feed additive to enhance the nutritive quality of phytate and reduce phosphorus pollution.

Industrial development has increase consumption of crude oil and environmental pollution. A large number of microbial lipolytic enzymes have been identified and characterized to date. To development for a new lipase with catalytic activity in degradation of crude oil as a microbial enzyme, Acinetobactor sp. B2 was isolated from soil samples that were contaminated with oil in Daejon area. Acinetobactor sp. B2 showed high resistance up to 10 mg/mL unit to heavy metals such as Ba, Li, Al, Cr, Pb and Mn. Optimal growth condition of Acinetobactor sp. B2 was confirmed $30^{\circ}C$. Lipase was purified from the supernatant by Acinetobactor sp. B2. Its molecular mass was determined to the 60 kDa and the optimal activity was shown at $40^{\circ}C$ and pH 10. The activation energies for the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl palmitate were determined to be 2.7 kcal/mol in the temperature range 4 to $37^{\circ}C$. The enzyme was unstable at temperatures higher than $60^{\circ}C$. The Michaelis constant $(K_{m})\;and\;V_{max}$ for p-nitrophenyl palmitate were $21.8{\mu}M\;and\;270.3{\mu}M\;min^{-1}mg\;of\;protein^{-1}$, respectively. The enzyme was strongly inhibited by $Cd{2+},\;Co^{2+},\;Fe^{2+},\;Hg^{2+},\;EDTA$, 2-Mercaptoethalol. From these results, we suggested that lipase purified from Acinetobactor sp. B2 should be able to be used as a new enzyme for degradation of crude oil, one of the environmental contaminants.

내성 P.aeruginosa에 의해 생성되는 항생물질 파괴효소인 cephalosporinase는 cephaloridine을 기질로 하여 효소활성도는 $45^{\circ}C$와 pH 8.5에서 각기 최고의 활성도를 나타내었다. SDS. carbenicillin 빛 cephalosporin계 항생체에 의해 효소의 활성도는 현저하게 억제되었으며 효소의 cephaloridine에 대한 $V_{max}$ 값을 100으로 하였올때 cefo p perazone의 $V_{max}$ 값은 2.8로 나타났다. 측정된 효소의 분자량은 $37.500{\pm}3,000$이었다. 다른 Gram음성셰균이 분비하는 cephalosporinase와 비교해본 결과 균체 자체의 특성에 의해 cepha]osporinase는 서로 다름을 알 수 있였 으며 이로 인하여 각각의 균체가 cephalosporin계 항생제에 대한 내성의 차이를 나타내는 하나의 중요한 원인으로 판단되었다.

생쥐의 장내세균으로 부터 황산전이 반응을 촉매하는 효소인 sulfotransferase를 생산하는 균주를 분리하였으며 동정결과 Haemophilus속 균주로 확인되어 Haemophilus K-12라 명명하였다. 균의 성장과 효소활성과의 관계를 보면 균은 10시간에서 완전히 성장하였으며 효소활성도 이와 비례하였다. Haemophilus K-12의 배지조성에 따른 sulfotransferase의 생산성을 Brain Heart Infusion 배지에서의 생산성과 비교해보면 탄소원으로는 sucrose가 0.2%농도에서 584%로 가장 좋았으며 질소원으로는 yeast extract가 266%로 가장 좋았다. 공여체로 PNS를 최종농도 1mM로 하여 배지에 첨가하였을때 212%로 가장 높은 효소증가를 보였다. 2가금속이온에 의한 효소증가는 현저하지 않았으며 $Mn^{2+}$이 107%로 가장 높았고$Zn^{2+}$와 EDTA에 의해서는 저해를 받았다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 균배양을 위한 이상적인 배지조성을 sucrose 0.2%, yeast extract 1%, $Na_2$HPO$_4$ 0.25%, NaCl 0.5%로 결정하였다. 결정된 최적배지에 균을 10L 배양하여 초음파 처리, 원심분리한 것을 70 % ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-cellulose column chromatography를 2회, Hydroxyapatite column chromatography, chromatdfocusing column chromatography, Silica PAE column chromatography, Sephacryl S-300 superfine column chromatography를 행한결과 specific activity가 6.76 umoie/min/mg protein인 효소액을 얻었으며 homogeneous enzyme였다. 이렇게 해서 얻은 효소를 이용하여 수용체 기질 특이성을 측정한 결과 1-naphthol이 phenol을 100%로 하였을 때 233%로 가장 좋았으며 Eubacterium A-44 sulfotransferase의 좋은 기질이었던 p-acetaminophenol, tyramine, 9-phenanthrol은 좋은 기질이 되지 못했다. 이상의 결과로 미루어 보아Haemophilus K-12 sulfotransferase는 지금까지 보고된 bacterial sulfotrasferase와는 다른 효소로 사려되며 효소반응기전의 규명이 이루어지면 산업적 응용이 가능할것으로 사료된다.

A phytase from Aeromonas sp. LIK 1-5 was partially purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation and DEAE-Sephacel column chromatography. Its molecular weight was 44 kDa according to SDS-PAGE gel. Enzyme activity was optimal at pH 7 and at $50^{\circ}C$. The purified enzyme was strongly inhibited by 2 mM EDTA, $Zn^{2+},\;Co^{2+},\;or\;Mn^{2+}$, and activated by 2 mM $Ca^{2+}$. The K_m value for sodium phytate was 0.23 mM, and the enzyme was resistant to trypsin. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the phytase was similar to that of other known alkaline phytases. The phytase was specific for ATP and sodium phytate, which is different from other known alkaline phytases. Based on the substrate specificity, the phytase may therefore be a novel alkaline phytase.

Single (0.005 M DTPA), sequential (six-step) and kinetic (0.05 M EDTA) extractions were performed to assess Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn mobilization and their potential ecological risks in Abuja (Nigeria) water (WTS) and wastewater (WWTS) treatment sludges. Total metal levels (mg/kg) in WTS and WWTS, respectively were: Cd(3.67 and 5.03), Cr(5.70 and 9.03), Cu(183.59 and 231.53), Ni(1.33 and 3.23), Pb(13.43 and 17.87), Zn(243.45 and 421.29). DTPA furnished metal extraction yields (%) in WTS and WWTS, respectively as: Cd(11 and 6), Cr (15 and 7), Cu(17 and 13), Ni(23 and 3), Pb(11 and 12), and Zn(37 and 33). The metals were associated with the soluble/exchangeable, carbonate, Mn/Fe-oxide, organic matter and residual forms to varying degrees. Kinetic extractions cumulatively leached metal concentrations akin to the mobilizable fractions extracted sequentially and the leaching data fitted well into the Elovich model. Metal mobilities were concordant for the three leaching procedures and varied in the order:WTS>WWTS. Calculated ecological risk indices suggested moderate and considerable metal toxicity in WTS and WWTS, respectively with Cd as the worst culprit. The findings may be useful in predicting heavy metals bioavailability and risks in the sludges to guide their disposal and use in land applications.

This study describes the characterization of 80 kDa pretense showing gelationlytic property among three pretenses in the excretory/secretory proteins (ESP) from Toxoplasma gondii. The pretense activity was detected in the ESP but not in the somatic extract of RH tachyzoites. This pretense was active only in the presence of calcium ion but not other divalent cationic ions such as $Cu^{2+},{\;}Zn^{2+},{\;}Mg^{2+},{\;}and{\;}$Mn^{2+}$, implying that $Ca^{2+}$ is critical factor for the activation of the protease. The 80 kDa pretense was optimally active at pH 7.5. Its gelatinolytic activity was maximal at $37^{\circ}C$, and significant level of enzyme activity of the pretense remained after heat treatment at $56^{\circ}C$ for 30 min or $100^{\circ}C$ for 10 min, This thermostable enzyme was strongly inhibited by metal chelators, i.e., EDTA, EGTA, and 11 10-phenanthroline. Thus, the 80 kDa pretense in the ESP secreted by T. gondii was classified as a calcium dependent neutral metalloprotease.

Chitinase (EC 3.2.1.14) from culture fluid of Bacillus licheniformis KFB-C14 was purified 66-folds to homogenity in overall yield of 21% by ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-Toyopearl, Butyl-Toyopearl and TSK-Gel HW-55F column chromatography. The enzyme protein had a molecular weight of about 86,000 and was composed of one subunit. The enzyme was significantly stable not only at high temperature but also on treatment with organic solvents and protein denaturants such as SDS, urea and guanidine-HC1. The optimum temperature and pH for reaction was 60$\circ $C and 6.0, respectively. The enzyme activity was inhibited by only Mn$^{2+}$ ion, but not inhibited by EDTA, N- ethylmaleimide and pCMB. The enzyme had high activity with colloidal chitin (V$_{max}$: 421) and commercial chitin (V$_{max}$: 480), but not with typical substrates of exo type chitinase. The thermostable chitinase had an useful reactivity for producing functional chitooligosaccharide, showing the production of (GlcNAc)$_{1}, (GlcNAc)$_{3}$, and (GlcNAc)$_{2}$ as major product.
